A survivor of Church abuse and cover ups goes on battling for her voice to be heard. A daily account of life after the Diocese of Winchester destroyed her and the slow and painful steps to rebuilding a life.

Introduction

This is a merge of my 'Wanderer' blog that tells of two years of my three years on the streets, and a new blog that tells of my life after the Diocese of Winchester ripped through my life for for the last few years on top of the previous serious harm that left me homeless

This is a day to day blog of my life as I continue to survive, work on recovery and on the social problems that I have and try to come to terms with limitless traumas I have survived along the way.

The former name of this blog and the name of it's sister blog are to do with my sense of humour, which I hope to keep to the end, which appears to be ever more rapidly approaching. At least I laughed, and I laughed at the people who were destroying me. Don't forget that.

Here are my books, which I wrote for you if you would like to know more: http://www.lulu.com/spotlight/JJNP

Saturday

Good evening peeps,

The weather remains uncomfortably hot, but at least I am sleeping reasonably well, albeit with nightmares, and waking early but not too early.

Today was a start like yesterday, depression and trauma, but today I managed to pull myself together and go to work.
I did my care home contract.

Then I have been here, writing, doing music and cleaning the flat.

I enjoyed watching the 'Princess Diaries 2' This evening and 'Airplane' Yesterday evening, so it is a good films weekend.

I am just kind of doing the cleaning, paperwork and general weekend sort-out at the moment.

It looks like I have bank holiday off if I want, as the gardening team aren't working that day and I don't have to book anyone else in. I can shovel all my work and a day with the gardening team into the remainder of the week, especially as Saturday is always a spare work day if needs be.

So, two days of writing and music to look forward to, I just have to watch that the depression doesn't spiral from being alone and not working.

The weather remains hot and will remain hot, and we missed the rain and thunder that other areas got.
